FAQs

Edwardian furniture, produced during the reign of King Edward VII from 1901 to 1910, often lighter in proportion than Victorian pieces, drew inspiration from various historical periods including Georgian, Sheraton, and Art Nouveau.

Pieces from this period frequently utilised solid oak, walnut, or mahogany, often featuring dovetail joints on drawers, hand-carved detailing, and brass or turned wooden hardware.

Authentic items typically display period-appropriate joinery such as hand-cut dovetails, natural ageing of the timber, original hardware, and construction methods consistent with early 20th-century manufacturing techniques.

Integrating a heritage wooden bureau into a modern space creates contrast; pair it with minimalist seating, contemporary lighting, and neutral walls to let the rich grain and craftsmanship stand out.

Maintain antique timber by keeping it away from direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent cracking, dusting with a soft dry cloth, and occasionally applying a quality microcrystalline wax to nourish the grain.
